HD Reader

OTC has announced the release of its new HD Reader, designed to provide fleet owners and professional automotive technicians who service Class 4 to Class 8 medium and heavy-duty trucks, with a cost-effective heavy-duty standard testing solution that reads and clears diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) on the latest medium and heavy-duty vehicles. Once the OTC 3418 HD Reader is connected to the vehicle, technicians are able to obtain on-screen DTC definitions for generic standard codes and on-screen support in seconds. This includes support on the latest SAE J1587, J1708 and J1939 protocol standards-as well as CAN, engine, and transmission/ABS diagnostics, which can be used along with the vehicle's service manual to make repairs.
